Kasper Schmeichel supposedly signed, 37yrs young. Dunno how i feel about this signing if true. HH.
1.) 12 Jul 2024 21:24:17
Hey Michael do you have a source for the info or is it just hearsay at the moment?
I would be happy enough with that if true, good keeper still, speaks the language so no communication issues, I would reckon he would give you good value for money. I remember when he played in Scotland years ago he was very good albeit was much much younger.
2.) 12 Jul 2024 21:25:10
If true Mikey, I would be happy if he was back up or playing for a season whilst we bed in the future No.1 GK.
If not, we'll be in the same position in a years time needing a first choice GK?

RJ,
it seems to be all over SM.
☘️ ? ☘️.

Seems like this has legs. I agree with pedro on this one. But I doubt KS would be signing not to be the number 1. Would be extremely disappointed by the lack of fore sight and planning.
If the club has a recruitment model of signing and developing players, why neglect doing the same with the GK position? I understand having experience but this would be short term and cheap.
5.) 13 Jul 2024 00:28:29
I see it all over there now Pedro
Sold keeper and we will certainly get a good season out of him, obviously the other Danish guy they wanted wasn't really a deal to be done just now.
6.) 13 Jul 2024 07:25:14
Great signing bags if experience and can play for another 2 years had a great euros.
7.) 13 Jul 2024 09:29:27
A good leader and anytime I saw him with Leicester, seemed a good goalie. I'm ok with this.
01 Jan 2024 19:00:14
Ola Solbakken?
Rumoured to be close to signing? He ripped us apart when playing for Bodo a few seasons back but not did much at Roma and has just had his loan at Olympiakos cut short.
If he gets his form back from a few years back may be a top class signing.
HH.
{Ed007's Note - Solbakken's already played for Roma and Olympiacos so he can't play for another team this season, Mikey. We could buy him this month, register him as a Celtic player but he wouldn't be allowed to play any matches for us.}
1.) 01 Jan 2024 19:20:22
Maybe a no starter then! Big McKenna and Shankland it is then haha!
{Ed007's Note - ?? If this window shuts and we haven't signed McKenna I'm blocking your number mate!}
2.) 01 Jan 2024 21:46:22
Shame Solbakken is definitely the type of player we should be after.
{Ed007's Note - Maybe we can line something up for the summer.}
3.) 01 Jan 2024 21:59:04
Now might be a perfect time to get him lined up for the summer if we actually want him.
{Ed007's Note - If Roma were willing to sell him on the cheap, a free or even a loan to buy in the summer we realistically bring him in to get integrated into the squad, training, living in Scotland etc and have him up to speed for next season.
I wouldn't imagine his wages would be a problem to cover for 5/6 months of nothing considering what we do have hanging about the squad.}
4.) 01 Jan 2024 22:19:02
Is it only two teams a player can play for in a season?, I thought it changed to three. Thought I had seen teams recall a player from a loan they weren’t getting game time at and then send them out again.
{Ed007's Note - It changed during Covid but it's back to 2.}
5.) 01 Jan 2024 22:26:29
He destroyed us a couple of seasons ago, with bodo. We couldn’t get near a few of their players, a worry could be that none have done anything in the following seasons and it could have been a flash in the pan season, or they actually just fitted in well with bodo. Unlike all the other teams in the spfl we give wingers room to hurt us as we are an attacking side, it’s ok having pace but if there is 11 players sitting in front of you, there is nowhere to use the pace. For me we need a jota type winger or in fact jota who can create space by skinning a full back either way.
6.) 02 Jan 2024 12:12:52
Solbakken would be a great shout IMO.
As you say Ed, even if we could sign him and give him tine to settle and train ahead of next season.

Daizan Maeda, ST from Japanese league and Yokohama Marinos looks to be arriving 1st January. Deal tied up anytime soon, HH.
1.) 22 Oct 2021 09:13:18
The guy looks rapid! His 1st touch and movement will leave players here on their @rse lol. Good signing if we can get it done.
HH
Chris1888.
2.) 22 Oct 2021 09:19:14
That would be brilliant Mickey because he’s played with Kyogo before which is a bonus.
Maeda has scored an impressive 18 goals this season in 30 games.
He’s an all rounder with 7 right footed goals,6 left footed goals and 5 headers.
3.) 22 Oct 2021 09:39:43
I wonder if Celtic will be able to get him signed for the New Year Derby.
January 1st is a holiday and lands on a Saturday, with the game on the Sunday.
4.) 22 Oct 2021 10:05:26
Guys the big question is will our Scottish media like MAEDA or will their Sevvie pals send out a MAYDAY.
5.) 22 Oct 2021 12:57:03
Knew this guy was going to be on our radar when Ange said he's looking at more J league players for the next window. Wonder if we'll go for Yamaguchi or Misao too.
6.) 22 Oct 2021 16:44:14
This boy plays off rhe left so might mean jota going to right, but good prob to have.
7.) 22 Oct 2021 16:49:17
Buzz
From experience the powers that be are unlikely to burst a gut trying to get his signing rushed through for our game at New Year.
8.) 22 Oct 2021 18:29:04
i think we will have to give him a bit of rest buzz mate as he will have just completed a season or he might be raring to go.
9.) 22 Oct 2021 20:01:10
The last league game in the Japanese league is on December 4th and that’s good news for Ange and Celtic.
Any players from the J1 league that Celtic sign will get 4 weeks rest and then they can train with their new team mates before playing their first league match for Celtic at Tynecastle on January 26th.
It’s perfect for the second half of the season.
10.) 22 Oct 2021 20:40:36
buzz you really are the man of info buddy that is perfect for us if he signs buddy.
11.) 22 Oct 2021 22:37:31
If i was picking 3 from the J league I would pick Maeda, Samper, and Reo Hatate.
What would your 3 be buzz?
12.) 23 Oct 2021 11:49:59
Rayman, I like the look of Maeda.
I don’t really know the players in that league but I trust Ange to find Celtic another couple of gems.
13.) 23 Oct 2021 12:04:34
Yea he is rapid buzz he reminds me of Agathe in the way that he doesn't look like he is getting there then manages to accelarate again.
He would be great for us in a defensive capacity too as he chases back for everything like Kyogo does.
14.) 23 Oct 2021 14:39:14
Rayman,
I read that Maeda has had 9 of the 10 most sprints in a game in the J1 this season.
The only other player to get into the top 10 was Kyogo.
Maeda must run about all day, a big difference to watching Ajeti.
11 Aug 2021 10:18:44
Josip Juranovic, Croatian RB who plays for Legia Warsaw. Celtic should have deal wrapped up in next 48 hours after Legia exited Champions League last night and are desperate to raise much needed funds. Juranoivc is pushing on to be first choice RB for Croatia national team. HH.
1.) 11 Aug 2021 13:48:58
Is he good at defending which to me is a priority.
28 May 2021 16:21:49
Supposedly the Howe Deal was dead weeks ago and Celtic is now in advanced talks with Lucian Favre who in my opinion is a far more superior candidate for the role. I understand fans anger but if you look into Favre (hopefully true) you will see how good the guy is. I'm actually surprised we can get him to Scotland but if it's true I'd be over the moon. HH.
1.) 28 May 2021 16:32:14
I hope you’re correct Mikey. Farce is an excellent candidate. My question would be though if the deal was dead weeks ago, why have we waited so long to progress with Farve. It’s a rhetorical question mate, I’m not looking for an answer.
2.) 28 May 2021 16:43:24
I think Howe has just been a big smokescreen, Yes I would've liked Howe but if it's True about Favre then that's even better. If anyone on this forum had a choice between the two 99% would pick Favre and rightly so. Like I've said I understand the fans reaction but if you sit back and look at the situation and if true Farve will be announced soon we are in business with this guy as he is one of the best around. HH.
3.) 28 May 2021 16:47:55
Favre would do for me just a mess all around though IF the deal for Howe is dead. And IF it's because he couldn't assemble his back room team then that should have been sought long ago make sure everything and everyone was in place. Total disaster from a club and board point of view. Another reason a lot of that board should move over because it looks like they don't have a clue. As for Howe I am disappointed in him he could have and should have sounded out the people he wanted for his back room staff. Before stringing Celtic along.
4.) 28 May 2021 16:55:09
yeah mate i would rather Favre i dint really want howe.
5.) 28 May 2021 17:10:51
It will be interesting now if Howe gets another job, will he get the Bournemouth staff? Or will it be a deal breaker like it was for us . Will it ultimately mean we didn’t want to pay for his staff and sports scientists?
6.) 28 May 2021 17:15:21
I don't believe anything till June 2nd bit I believe there will be a shock and a good one HH.
7.) 28 May 2021 17:53:30
Hope you are right mickey. If we are only trying to get someone in now this has gone tits up we are in real trouble.

With it looking like Tierney coming in And Valle leaving for Como in Italy. Why not keep Valle and Taylor and play Tierney at CB with Vickers! After seeing Trusty last night and Scales recently surly that's a shout!
HH.
1.) 15 Jan 2025 22:00:21
Michael that is indeed a shout a thought I’d had myself he he plat on the left of a back three but GT has been fantastic for us and I’d be so sad to see him leave particularly given who’s to replace him I’d have KT nowhere near the club.
2.) 15 Jan 2025 22:44:35
Think valle wants out.
3.) 15 Jan 2025 23:39:01
Yeah, it's that simple?!?!
09 Jan 2025 06:09:05
Some of the questions being answered to the Celtic manager to drum up drama is hilarious.
"Celtic fans singing about numerous Celtic legends tonight Brendan, how did you feel about that? " This is coming from a sky sports regular btw!
Sky have always had a vendetta for years vs Celtic due to the history of our club, but I feel over recent weeks they are really trying to get a reaction from the club.
16 points clear, it's clearly hurting so many out there! Unfortunately for the ones hurting out there come the end of the season it will be 25 points + we win the league by.
A Happy New Year To All
HH.
1.) 09 Jan 2025 09:22:16
I have found this whole ‘song’ drama pathetic on 2 fronts. Firstly, our media’s rush to make something of it ( that wouldn’t have happened if it was the tribute act across the city) , and secondly our own section of fans who have tried to pass it off as ‘it was just a wee ditty about a Celtic legend’… pathetic, it was obvious why they sang about KT at this point in time.
Personally I have found the whole thing beyond boring.
{Ed001's Note - surely the reason the media are making something of it is purely because there is so little to talk about when a team is winning easily? They need controversy and drama to drive clicks and to make people tune in to TV and radio. There is already plenty to talk about with Rangers, and always will be unless they get into the position you are in, so of course they won't bother with it if it was them. It is not about bias, it is about desperation to finally have something to make a story from.}

Afternoon All,
Hopefully everyone had a good Christmas.
On the way to the match today with the Mrs and Jnr. This will be his first game, 20months old ?

Brought my wife and smaller one for the first time too. Left them in the forge at their request. The other 4 came though. Cold day up in the heavens.

Afternoon Everyone,
I would like to let everyone know that my mum had her Cancer operation on Wednesday and I'm pleased to let everyone know the tumour was removed successfully. She is getting well looked after in Edinburgh and hopefully, she will be allowed to leave within 2 weeks with all things going well with her recovery. The operation was delayed for nearly 2 weeks from the original date which was not great as I was over in Italy while the op was taking place.
So a fantastic week for the family all around.
Hopefully Celtic finish the week in style tomorrow.
HH.

This is where the NHS has no equals, we have the best doctors and nurses.

Buzz,
Why would we sign a proven Scottish Internationalist at a very good age for free when we could sign an unknown from another country for 3/ 4mill and hope for the best? This is Celtic we are talking about.
In the past, we have signed players like Steven Pressley and Gary Caldwell and while they were certainly no world beaters they were solid and gave 7/ 10+ every game they played.
Celtic's transfer policy in recent times is terrible, they get lucky with the odd gem (jota, van Dijk) but you need to look at some of the players we currently have in the club to realise how bad it has been in recent years.
Kwon, Kobayashi, and Ideguchi to name a few are some of the worst players I've seen in a Celtic jersey. Thankfully it looks like all 3 will be off the book by the end of the month.

14 Aug 2023 12:37:03
If Joe Hart is our no1 for the season we are in serious trouble. Again I’ll reiterate, Nothing against Joe Hart as a person as he seems a decent guy. But as a GK he is nowhere near good enough to be Celtic number 1.
17 Aug 2021 14:26:57
IMO you don't fluke that many goals especially for a team who got relegated! He scored more goals than Malen for PSV who was just sold for 32million.

Michael Jnr is now 17 months and could probably put in a decent shift ??.

Kevbhoy - No family connection or that. I started supporting them in 2001, Back When Italian football was on Channel 4!, I've made some close mates over the last 20-odd years who I meet up with when I go over every season. I'll include a link to the Gazzeta Football Italia intro that was on channel 4, everyone remembers that!
KenLikeEh - Still no ticket for Saturday, Gutted!

10 Dec 2023 14:54:30
The players downed tools and showed absolutely no fight in that 2nd half. That is very much the player's problem.
10 Dec 2023 11:52:15
How many good CB’s out that 8 are decent wee joe?
We obviously need to move on many players, I was just saying that it would be a good option imo.
